'Football Lads Alliance'

[LancashireHibby]

The EDL started in an identical fashion. Don’t be fooled by the anti-Islam rhetoric, they’re anti-everybody who doesn’t fit in to their vision. Nothing to see here, move along.

Personally wouldnt give them the oxygen of publicity.

I begrudge that they use the oxygen of oxygen.

[BegbieHSC]

The only oxygen I'd give them is to tell them to go ****** themselves.

Hibs are an inclusive club, founded to support the local community. We've just supported the ScotGov's anti racism/anti-homophobia/anti xenophobic campaign, and I hope fans back this, and reject the racist, non-inclusive, parochial, British Nationalist FLA.

In short, they are not Hibs Class, and the only fans I would expect to give this organisation would be the deranged sevco lot.

Don't be fooled by this mob, and support Hibernian Football club!

They all look exactly the way you'd expect them to look, quite a spectacle really.

How anyone can listen to Tommy Robinson speak then say with a straight face that “he’s not an idiot” beggars belief.

You really don't get out enough do you...or are you deliberately gullible?

Robinson is a racist and a fascist to boot. Their march had nowhere near the support claimed and the profiling of the attendee showed direct links to the racist firms who attach themselves to English teams.

Be under no illusions about this bunch. They are racists, fascist thugs and no-one who is not likewise inclined should give them the time of day...and apologists for them or those seeking to give them a platform for the sake of balance are just as bad, if not worse.

What's that meant to mean?

Prove that Robinson is a racist. I think he is and the EDL and FLA, but I couldn't prove it and that is the point I was making, these characters are getting more astute at presenting themselves. To just say they are racist, facist thugs, but then be unable to back that up defeats your argument. The point is a lot of people will find their views similar to their own unless they can be defeated by reasoned arguments. Look at UKIP they got 4 million votes, FFS.

This right wing **** is growing and just calling them names is not going to stop them.

We don't have a problem with Islam. Or rather, we really shouldn't.

We have an issue in that a particularly nasty, radical form of Islam causes total idiots to carry out atrocities.

This is useful to ar5eholes who stand to profit from divisive, hateful rhetoric. That can come in the form of selling right-wing newspapers, making hateful television programmes or in this guys case a chance for a pitiful excuse of a human being to enjoy his 15 minutes of fame whilst he fronts a movement of like-minded bell ends.

I'm not even going into the multi-factorial problems that exist in the middle east, but the fact is that there are a few more brown skinned people who follow a particular faith kicking about Europe now than there was a few years ago. That might be considered to be a "problem" by some, but one way or another we're going to have to learn how to deal with it, hopefully peacefully.

We need to rise above groups like this, we need to see through them. This is not a positive step, not on any level. Nobody's "kids are going to be safer" with the existence of groups like this.

Everyone that hasn't been booted in the head too often over the course of their life needs to tell them to gtf.

I don't know what the solution to Islamic extremism is, but I know for a fact that it is not more extremism.

Yep!

Can someone call Billy Brown's missus to come pick him up?

The keyboard wise guy! Look forward to more from such an enlightened astute observer. Anyone can pick me up, cos I am not Billy Brown or even SunshineOnLieth, unfortunately!

I'm not pro FLA and I'm don't support it either. As I said i think its totally pointless people marching about achieving nothing but i do think there are men at the march who are not racist but they are simply voicing their disgust at the threat of Islamic Terrorism in their country. Sympathy probably is not the right word to use, its probably better described as me feeling sorry for them that they are joining groups like FLA thinking they are achieving anything or that it the correct place to voice their concerns. I don't agree with racist views at all and id never support any group that has any racist views (ANTIFA Included) but equally i don't think its racist to voice concerns about extreme forms of islam within the UK.

Ermmm no thanks, it’s got Antifa hands all over it, a bunch of idiots protesting over another bunch of idiots! I’ll just decide not to listen to any far right or far left group by myself thanks 👍🏻

I'm sorry but these counter protestors always seem like a mob formed from a mish-mash of campaigns and ideologies.

What is their aim? An ideal world where we all live in harmony, free to live our lives regardless of race, colour or sexual orientation?

Where do you want me to start? Pointing out contradictions from left to right in the picture they present or calling out crap from page one of any religious book they believe in?

[Carheenlea]

Won't be at any counter protest myself, but the leafleting at Saturdays game will highlight the proposed march by the FLA group, and if fans are unhappy to see this march taking place they can decide themselves whether or not to counter protest. No harm at all in the leafleting at Saturdays game.

Antifa isn't one entity, it is - as you have spotted - a loose coalition of people who have diverse views, but with one focal point.

They exist to counter the growth of extreme far right views.

I don't believe they are all religious, in fact most probably have no faith.

There are some similarities between 1930s Europe and today, and some people on the far right are looking to take advantage of the chaos.

While Antifa may not be ideal, and I have nothing to do with them, I have to applaud their efforts to shine a light on these home grown Nazis.

Always find best not to give these types a name nor platform to spread their agenda as doing so simply ligitimises them!

indeed as usual poor for the record to do so and hear also to be honest.

[hibsbollah]

There's worrying tendency on here seemingly to equate the far right street gangs with the 'antifa', those protesting against the fascists. It's lazy and inaccurate, as if we've taken the 'both cheeks of the same erse' argument we use to define the old firm, and to argue that Celtic are just as bad as Rangers, to new levels of stupidity.

There should only be two sides, fascists on one side and those who disapprove of fascism on the other. Anything else is ignoring what's right of front of your face. If you can't see the FLA for what they are you're very naive.

[lucky]

FLA have no place at ER. Our club is built on being inclusive. This “new” mob are trying to use football to get oxygen for their own views over to a wider audience I hope Hibs fans chase them out of Leith

Was thinking similar. Anyone who thinks that fascists should be ignored and left alone to drum up support amongst the hard of thinking need their heads looking at and remedial history lessons.

Absolutey spot on. Breathtaking naivety or mischief making.

Yes they stand shoulder to shoulder with racist groups like BLM. There is lots of evidence online showing ANTIFA violence on our streets, them running around using violence wearing masks, dressing In uniform and branding people Nazi's unjustly to justify their violence and intolerance.

ANTIFA or people associated with ANTIFA are acting more and more like extreme left wing terrorist group.
